"This scoundrel has been extremely ruthless with his attack, fortunately, it didn't harm the insides, but the external injury looks quite serious. If it leaves a scar and mars her appearance, that wouldn't be good. A woman's appearance is of utmost importance. We must apply medicine quickly. We are all men here; it's not appropriate for us to apply medicine on Mrs. Lin. We should find a woman to do so," Doctor Zheng said after taking Lin Yue's pulse.
Dr. Zheng brought over the prepared ointment, and Liu, the shopkeeper, quickly sent someone to the inner courtyard to call his wife over. It's not that there weren't any maids or old women available, but Liu, the shopkeeper, did not trust the servants with this task and felt more at ease with his own wife handling it.
While Liu's wife applied the medicine on Lin Yue, Liu, the shopkeeper, and Dr. Zheng stepped out to the outer room to discuss the incident that had just taken place.
